About Restore N’ Joy

My call

The hardest thing I have ever done is to keep living after the death of my son. December 1994 Christmas day my life changed. It has been a long journey. It did not take 20+ years for joy to be restored in my life. It took me 20+ years to answer the call. The call to come along side with other mothers who are like me. I have in small ways been there on countless occasions for others but now is the time, time to reach out and reach in, to come together and support mothers who are, have, and unfortunately will take this journey. It is a safe place to hear, say and be heard… while feeling the love and support that only comes from another mother.

I start this dialogue to support sisters, mothers, no matter how long and where you are…this is your safe place. My faith is what kept me. I could not have made it without Jesus and the word of God. There were other things in between that came to lighten and some to challenge. But, even as I say that, there are no judgements or expectations of others… just a sharing of things that may be common, things that lift, things of support, that will guide through the darkness and a forum to express the darkness. Most of all the love of one mother to other mothers who like me have had to walk this road. Today I invite to come in just as you are!
